Abstract

A vehicle air-conditioning system includes an air-conditioning amplifier unit (g) being connected to a plurality of door actuators (d,e,f) through one communication (h) and one power line (i); and the air-conditioning amplifier unit (g) having first door-operation self-diagnostic means (j) which sends to the door actuator target stopping position data for bringing doors in a full-open condition or full-close condition; if there is a change in an instruction value, after the lapse of a preset period of time which takes into account the time period required for the door to arrive at a target position and a lag in communication, the self-diagnostic means determining that the doors are in a normal condition when the signal returned from the door actuator represents that the doors are in a stopped state but determining that the doors are in an abnormal condition when the signal represents that the doors are in an actuated state.
